The Escape MK-II Series
When Traveler Guitar released their ever popular Escape series guitars in 2003, they not only exceeded the expectations of guitar purists, but those of their own dedicated customer base. Now, nearly four years later, they've have done it again with the Escape MK-II. The updated Escape line still includes a full-scale steel string, classical, and bass model. Traveler Guitar consulted with revolutionary guitar builder John Carruthers to improve the ergonomics of the Escape line; making the MK-II feel more like a traditional guitar than ever before. Not only has the body been updated, but the new MK-II also boasts a custom Hybrid-Element pickup system from none other than the industry's leading pickup innovators, L.R. Baggs. All three models come equipped with the system which has onboard electronics with a 2-band EQ, a built in headphone amplifier, and like all Travelers, the ability to be plugged directly into a traditional amplifier for live applications. The entire Escape MK-II line features classic finish options with elegant binding, laminate spruce and cedar tops and traditional mahogany stains.
Full Scale Travel Bass
Traveler pride themselves on having never compromised the playing scale of any of their instruments, and this instrument is no exception. Featuring a full 32-inch scale and 24 frets, you'll barely remember you're playing a travel guitar.
